The Reincarnation of the Ruler

Li Cheng and Li Fan

"We'll find out about it, but now I have to go back to the upper world first. I haven't been back in a long time and I'm sure my workspace is full of paper"

"pardon me little girl but I also have to return to my clan.is it okay to leave you alone here?"

"no problem, I can take care of myself"

"then be careful, call us when you need help" Yuan Li nodded. A moment later Jiancheng and Yuanfeng disappeared from his sight .

Currently Yuan Li was in an inn that was in the center of the Jiang imperial city. Yuan Li's inn room was on the third floor, it made Yuan Li able to freely see the situation down there.

"It seems like a good time to do a closed workout at least until tomorrow morning before sunrise"

After putting up a protective guard on his room, Yuan Li sat on the mattress in the lotus position. His eyes closed and began to concentrate to begin training.

"let's start with the wind sword technique" Yuan Li began to move his hand to swing the sword according to the instructions on the book given by Xiao Yue.

It didn't take long, Yuan Li was already able to master the three stages of the wind sword at once.

"for the next, the spirit-destroying black fire. This is a hard thing to do. But why this technique can be in books given by teachers"

The spirit-destroying black flame, was not an indiscriminate technique. Where any use that has the element of fire must use pure fire from hell. I don't know how to get that fire. But surely the spirit-destroying black fire technique was believed to be one of the black magic.

"but this is interesting to learn" Yuan Li began to practice the steps shown in his book.

"a little draining energy"

Yuan Li continued his practice until the morning when the rooster started crowing, Yuan Li opened his eyes again.

'huft's'

"i should take a bath immediately" Yuan Li rose towards the bathhouse in his room.

After taking a bath, Yuan Li changed her clothes with a charming black hanfu.

"what am I supposed to do today?"

Yuan Li walked down the market. His eyes were looking for something interesting. When the focus is looking around, the aqua bead is fixed on a shop that looks outdated at the end of the market.

Yuan Li stepped into the shop. The clink of the bells rang out as he opened the door that looked almost weathered. Inside the shop, an old woman greeted him warmly.

"Welcome young lady.introduce me Wu Ling, what do you need here?" welcome the woman friendly.

"ah, I'm looking for a mask. Does aunt have it" Yuan Li asked.

"i have some ladies, come on"

Yuan Li followed Madam Wu towards the mask line at the end of the shop.

"please miss" Yuan Li took a look at some of the masks on display. The choice fell on a half-face mask in black white with a rose carving.

"i'll take this one aunty" Madam Wu received the mask then walked towards the cashier. Yuan Li went around the shop to look around.

When looking at the collection of swords in the shop, there was a sword that attracted his attention.

Simple sword, silver-white sword hilt. A long sword blade, longer than usual with a rose carving. A sharp sword eye, Yuan Li was convinced that the sword could even pierce through a one-meter thick log.

"you're interested in that sword, miss?" Yuan Li turned his head towards Madam Wu who was already standing behind him.

"how much?"

"20 silver coins"

"because it's amazing then the price is cheap" Yuan Li certainly did not understand. Usually the more attractive an item, the price will be more expensive. But this is very different.

"This sword used to belong to a famous cultivator miss. This sharpness of the sword had killed thousands of people. It is said that the souls of the slain were confined in this sword together with its owner. Therefore no one dared to possess this sword. If this story does not exist, then it can be ascertained that this sword sells at a high price. Aside from being made from a mixture of silver and pure gold, this sword was at the level of legend. Miss can see the engraving on the sword sheath? it's not just any carving, miss. If miss is interested in buying it, I will price 10 silver"

"look like a regular sword, I'll take it"

After buying the sword and the mask, Yuan Li went to a tavern to eat. Yuan Li spent 50 gold pieces to buy the two items.

"*this mona is too many, the total of them is only 25 silver coins"

"it doesn't matter, because this sword should be expensive*"

Yuan Li enjoyed his lunch peacefully. Until the noise of the girls and young ladies disturbs his hearing.

"look it was the fifth young master of the Zhu clan, he was very handsome"

"are you right, young master Aling Zhu is indeed handsome"

Yuan Li seemed unconcerned by the presence of the highly hailed young man inside the tavern. He was still enjoying his meal until the young man sat in front of him.

"What's!? you want to bother me?"

"hahaha, it turns out that I didn't mistake you for being your sweet sister"

"stop ruining my hair, you're making it messy" Yuan Li's words made Aling Zhu chuckle. While the current Yuan Li had already felt his hair sitting standing up because of the girls who were looking at him sharply.

"so, what are you doing here?" aling Zhu asked as he began his meal.

"the teacher returned to the sect and I was tired of being alone there. I can't possibly go back to the Xi empire or the Xue Empire either, so I'm here" Yuan Li replied.

"really? you didn't come here because you missed me, did you?"

"what am I missing you for?"

"you cruel sister. My heart aches when you say that to me"

"please forgive me"

Yuan Li chatted a lot with Aling Zhu while waiting for the young man to finish with his meal. He did not care about the intimidating look directed at him. Yuan Li waited for Aling Zhu because after this he would come with Aling Zhu to fulfill the duties of his father.

In fact, he was only confused as to what to do while waiting for information from his brother about the Red Scorpion Alliance.

"*who is the girl who dares to approach young master Aling Zhu"

"cz! only a little girl would dare to approach the young master"

"i don't know and have never seen that girl, who she*"

Yuan Li, who could not stand the whispers, invited Aling Zhu to leave the shop immediately.

Aling Zhu nodded, then left together with Yuan Li after putting two gold coins on the table.
